CAPTIONING MADE POSSIBLE BY
WARNER BROS.

[ALARM BUZZES]

AAH!

OH!

MAKE A NOISE
OR SOMETHING.
DON'T DO THAT!

MY GOD.

SO, WHAT'S ON
THE DOCKET FOR TODAY?

DADDY'S COMING OUT
TO THE BARN.

HE WANTS TO MEET
WITH ME AND HANK

ABOUT
THIS GRAND PRIX.

WHAT FOR?

HE JUST LIKES TO
GRIND US EVERY YEAR.

IT MAKES HIM
FEEL IN CONTROL.

YEAH. YEAH.
WHERE'S THE DOODLEBUG?

SHE BETTER BE
GETTING DRESSED.

CAROLINE,
WHAT ARE YOU DOING?

MOM, AM I GOING TO
RIDE TODAY?

WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN
ALL NIGHT?

SLEEPING.
MOM, AM I GOING TO RIDE?

BABY,
IF WE HAVE TIME.

NOW GO FINISH
GETTING READY.

GO, GO, GO.

SHIT!

[TIRES SQUEAL]

I'M SORRY. I'M SORRY.

I DON'T KNOW
WHAT'S WRONG WITH ME.

YOU DID IT AGAIN.

WE'LL FIND YOU
A NEW MOTHER.

GOOD MORNING, GRACE.

HEY, DUB.

HARRY, TAKE THE TRAILER
OVER TO MACK'S.

PICK UP JOE'S WHIMSY
AROUND 4:30.

SHEILA WILL OVER
AND HELP YOU.

YES, MA'AM.

AND TELL HANK
BEFORE YOU GO

SO HE CAN BE HERE.

HEY, RAYMOND.

HEY.

GOOD BOY.
GOOD BOY.

MORNING.

MORNING, MR. KING.

CAUGHT YOU.

ARE YOU TRYING TO
BRIBE OLD POSSUM?

HI, GRAMPS.

IT WILL MAKE
MISS LILY JEALOUS,

AND SHE'LL DUMP YOU
OFF IN THE RING.

SAVE THE TREATS FOR
THE HORSE YOU RIDE.

PLEASE LET ME.

I DON'T WANT
TO RIDE A PONY.

I WANT TO
RIDE A HORSE.

HANKS SAYS
I'M BIG ENOUGH.

HONEY,
HOLD ON A MINUTE.

FIRST, YOU CAN WIN
ON MISS LILY,

AND YOU'RE GOING TO
WIN ON MISS LILY.

SEE HOW STRONG
MY LEGS ARE?

HONEY, I GOT TO
PUT YOU DOWN.

HAVE MERCY
ON AN OLD MAN.

NOW, LISTEN.

YOU'VE GOT TO LEARN TO
RECOGNIZE YOUR LIMITATIONS.

GRAMPS, WHY?
I'M READY.

I'VE BEEN PRACTICING.
I KNOW I CAN DO IT.

HAVE YOU TAKEN THIS UP
WITH YOUR MAMMA?

YOU THINK
I'D BE BEGGING YOU

IF SHE TOLD ME YES?

JUST PUT ME
ON THAT HORSE,

AND I'LL WIN
THE CHAMPIONSHIP.

AND HOW COME

EVERYBODY HAS TO TELL ME
WHEN I'M READY?

I'M SUPPOSED TO TELL YOU.

I'M READY, AND I'M ABOUT
RUNNING OUT OF PATIENCE

WITH YOU PEOPLE!

DON'T GET YOURSELF
ALL WORKED UP.

HELP DUB.
EARN YOUR KEEP HERE.

I GOT TO TALK
TO YOUR MAMMA.

HEY, HANK.
HOW'S IT GOING?

GREAT.

GOOD. GRACE NEEDS
TO SEE YOU.

NOW?

I GOT TO SEE HER
FOR A MINUTE.

AFTER THAT,
ALL RIGHT?

YES, SIR.

[KNOCK ON DOOR]

HI, DADDY.

ALL RIGHT.

HAVE A HEART

WENT ON THE MARKET
LAST WEEK.

YOU KNOW THE ONE
IN CALIFORNIA--

JAMIE JOHNSON'S
HORSE?

HE WON
THE HAMPTON CLASSIC.

I KNOW THE HORSE.

HOW MUCH
IS HE ASKING?

OH, 150,000.

WHAT'S WRONG
WITH HIM?

NOTHING.

JAMIE'S SELLING
BECAUSE OF HIS DIVORCE.

ANYWAY, I BOUGHT HIM.

YOU DID WHAT?

I GOT A FEELING
ABOUT HIM, GRACE.

I THINK IT'S GOING
TO BE HIS YEAR.

HE'S GOT
GRAND PRIX CHAMPION

WRITTEN
ALL OVER HIM.

I'M GOING TO
RIDE HIM.

BUT, DADDY, WITHOUT EVEN
DISCUSSING IT WITH US?

THERE'S NOTHING
TO DISCUSS.

WHAT ABOUT RANSOM?
HANK IS--

MOM!

MOM, DUB SAID
I COULD RIDE POSSUM.

NOT NOW.
IN A MINUTE, SWEETIE.

RANSOM'S NOT READY.

I DON'T HAVE THE SAME
FEELING ABOUT RANSOM.

SO YOU'RE GOING TO RIDE
AGAINST HANK AND RANSOM?

WE WON'T ENTER RANSOM.
HE CAN WAIT.

DADDY, HANK WILL QUIT.

WELL, THEN HERE'S
A GOOD OPPORTUNITY

FOR YOU TO UTILIZE
YOUR PEOPLE SKILLS

TO MAKE SURE
HE DOESN'T.

YOU HEAR ME?
YOU UNDERSTAND?

YOU CAN'T DO THIS.
IT'S NOT FAIR.

IT'S DONE.
NOW ROLL WITH IT.

GODDAMN! SHIT!
SON OF A BITCH!

YOU WATCH
THAT MOUTH, NOW.

SHE CAN SEE YOU
NOW, HANK.

OK.

WELL, THEN GODDAMN IT,
I QUIT.

I DON'T NEED THIS SHIT.

I WISH
THE SON OF A BITCH

WOULD DIE
IN A FIERY CAR CRASH.

I KNOW, HANK.
GET IN LINE.

JUST LISTEN.

NO, YOU LISTEN.
I WON'T SIT BY

WHILE THE SON OF A BITCH
RUINS MY CAREER.

THIS IS RANSOM'S YEAR.

MAYBE I CAN MAKE HIM
SEE REASON.

YOU CAN'T DO THIS TO ME!

HEY, GRACE.
DADDY IN THERE?

NO.

WAIT UP.

I HAVE TO GO
TO CHARITY LEAGUE.

DID YOU KNOW
ABOUT THIS, EMMA RAE?

ABOUT THIS HORSE THING?

THANKS
FOR TELLING ME!

HEY, CHECK
YOUR MACHINE, GRACE.

GRACE, WAIT!

[EMMA RAE
HONKING HORN]

GRACE!

MOM!

GOD HELP ME.

Caroline:
I CAN'T BELIEVE THIS!

AND NOW ON TO THE BUSINESS
OF OUR CENTENNIAL COOKBOOK.

I KNOW WE ALL WANT THIS
TO BE OUR BEST EVER.

I'LL ASK OUR COMMITTEE CHAIRMAN
TO BRING US UP TO DATE.

Grace.

RIGHT. UH...

UH, DEADLINE FOR RECIPE
SUBMISSIONS IS THE 2nd.

IF YOU WANT TO SUBSTITUTE
VEGETABLE SHORTENING

WHEREVER IT SAYS
BACON GREASE OR LARD,

NELL McGEHEE ASKED ME
TO MENTION THAT

BECAUSE HER HUSBAND
IS RECOVERING

FROM TRIPLE BYPASS
RIGHT NOW.

UH, LUCY'S GOING TO
TAKE OVER FOR ME

UNTIL AFTER
THE GRAND PRIX,

AND THAT'S IT.

Names.

OH, RIGHT.

UH...

THE COMMITTEE THINKS
THAT, UM...

WELL, WE'VE LOOKED AT
A LOT OF OTHER COOKBOOKS.

WE'VE ALWAYS BEEN LISTED

WITH OUR MARRIED NAMES
UNDER THE RECIPES,

AND FRANKLY, THE PRACTICE
OF EXCLUDING OUR FIRST NAMES

LOOKS OUTDATED,

SO I THINK WE SHOULD
JUST LIST OUR NAMES--

FIRST, MIDDLE, AND LAST--
AND THAT'S ALL.

I ALWAYS THOUGHT
THE WAY IT WAS

LOOKED QUAINT.

IT DOESN'T LOOK QUAINT.
IT LOOKS ANTIQUATED.

WELL, WHAT ABOUT
THE TRADITIONS?

IF MY NAME ISN'T IN THERE AS
MRS. FRANKLIN J. CALDWELL III,

THEN HOW THE HELL
WILL ANYBODY KNOW WHO I AM?

BARBARANELLE CALDWELL--
WHO'S THAT?

I COULD BE HIS DAUGHTER.

YOU WISH.

SHUT UP, LORENE.

[TAPPING GLASS]

LADIES. LADIES.

THIS WON'T BE
DECIDED ON TODAY,

SO IF THERE'S
NO FURTHER BUSINESS,

THEN THIS MEETING
IS ADJOURNED.

THANK YOU.

HELL. I'M PROUD TO
USE MY HUSBAND'S NAME.

I CONSIDER STILL BEING MARRIED
TO THE OLD GOAT

ONE OF MY GREATEST
ACCOMPLISHMENTS.

YOU KNOW,
YOUR MOTHER CALLED.

SHE WANTS TO
CHANGE THE MENU

FOR THE GRAND PRIX
PARTY.

WHY? EVERYBODY
LOVES IT.

SHE WANTS SHRIMP.

SHE SAYS SHE'S SICK
OF HAM AND BARBECUE.

THEY'VE BEEN DOING IT
FOR 35 YEARS.

I DON'T KNOW WHY
IT SUDDENLY BOTHERS HER.

LET ME GIVE THIS PRECIOUS
THING SOME LUNCH.

I HAVE TO TAKE HER
TO MILLER'S

TO GET HER FITTED
FOR A RIDING HABIT.

WONDERFUL.
WHO WILL YOU RIDE?

POSSUM.

MISS LILY.

Woman:
SEE YOU LATER, GRACE.

IS THIS BECAUSE I DON'T
HAVE ALL MY TEETH?

WE'RE NOT GOING TO
DISCUSS IT.

YOU HAVE TO
WEAR THEM DOWN.

BYE, DARLING.

BYE.

WHY DO BUILDINGS
HAVE STORIES?

WHAT DO YOU MEAN?

WHY DO THEY SAY 20 STORIES
OR 50 STORIES HIGH?

THAT'S
A GOOD QUESTION.

WE'LL HAVE TO
LOOK THAT ONE UP.

HI.

HEY.

[HORN HONKS]

MOM, GREEN MEANS GO.

BICHON PARTNERS.

EDDIE BICHON'S
OFFICE, PLEASE.

EDDIE BICHON'S
OFFICE.

HELLO, JUNE.
IT'S GRACE.

COULD I SPEAK
TO EDDIE?

OH, HI, GRACE.
HE'S NOT IN.

HE SAID
HE'D BE IN A MEETING

FOR THE REST
OF THE AFTERNOON.

DID HE SAY WHERE?

NO, MA'AM.

IF HE CALLS IN,
SHOULD HE CALL YOU?

UH, NO.

ALL RIGHT.

Emma Rae:
THE HORSE IS PART OF
THE DIVORCE SETTLEMENT.

DAD'S GOT HIM DOWN
TO THE LOW TWOs.

[BEEP]

Eddie: DAD WANTS ME TO
HAVE DINNER WITH CLIENTS.

I'LL BE HOME BY 11:00.
KISS THE DOODLEBUG FOR ME.

[BEEP]

Eddie:
HEY, GRACE, IT'S ME.

THIS MEETING TOOK LONGER
THAN WE THOUGHT.

NOW DAD WANTS ME
TO HAVE DINNER--

[CLICK]

LOOK.
THAT'S DADDY'S CAR.

BABY, YOU WAIT HERE.

[LOUD MUSIC PLAYING]

HEY.

YOU'RE BUSTED, BUDDY.

HI, DADDY! HI!

GET BACK IN THE CAR.

JESUS CHRIST.

YOU GET YOUR ASS
OUT HERE NOW.

EXCUSE ME A SECOND.

CALL 911.

GOOD LUCK.

[CLEARS THROAT]

GRACE, WHAT IS THAT,
YOUR NIGHTGOWN?

HEY, DADDY.
WE CAME TO GET YOU.

HI, TADPOLE.
HOW ARE YOU DOING?

I'LL PUT YOU
IN THE CAR, OK?

IT'S WAY PAST
YOUR BEDTIME.

GET IN THE CAR, GRACE.

THERE YOU GO,
SWEETHEART.

GET IN THE CAR.

NO!

WILL YOU PLEASE
GET IN THE CAR?

YOU'RE MAKING A SPECTACLE
OF YOURSELF.

NO. YOU ARE MAKING
A SPECTACLE OF ME.

WHAT IN THE HELL
IS WRONG WITH YOU?

I SAW YOU.

WHAT ARE YOU
TALKING ABOUT?

I SAW YOU AT THE CORNER
OF 4th AND UNION.

YOU KNOW WHAT
I'M TALKING ABOUT.

YOU WERE WITH A GIRL
IN A RED SUIT.

THE SAME GIRL
THAT'S RIGHT IN THERE.

HONEY, I DON'T KNOW
WHAT YOU THINK YOU SAW,

BUT THAT WAS NOT ME.

THAT'S IT?
THAT'S ALL I GET?

YOU'RE GOING TO
STAND HERE AND LIE TO ME

IN THE MIDDLE
OF THE STREET?

WHAT?

WHAT DO YOU
WANT ME TO SAY?

I--I...

I WANT YOU TO SAY
GOOD-BYE TO CAROLINE.

WHERE ARE
YOU GOING?

WHAT, HOME TO DADDY?

FUCK YOU, EDDIE.

KISS DADDY GOOD-BYE,
ANGEL.

SEE YOU LATER,
ALLIGATOR.

AFTER A WHILE, AL--
I MEANT CROCODILE.

IT'S ALL RIGHT.

[STARTS ENGINE]

MOM...

IS DADDY IN TROUBLE?

YES, BABY, HE IS.

DON'T YOU WORRY,
OK?

HE'S IN VERY BIG
TROUBLE.

OH, LORD.

WELL, IT'S JUST
AN UNHOLY MESS.

AND THE TIMING--

RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE
OF THIS WHEELER FARM DEAL

WITH EDDIE AND HIS DAD.

IF YOU'RE EXPECTING
LOYALTY FROM DADDY,

YOU CAN
JUST FORGET IT.

I'M NOT.

BELIEVE ME, I'M NOT
COMPLETELY DELUDED.

I ALWAYS WORRIED

SOMETHING LIKE THIS
MIGHT HAPPEN.

WELL, IF YOU WERE
SO GODDAMNED WORRIED,

WHY DIDN'T YOU
SAY SOMETHING?

WHAT WAS I
SUPPOSED TO SAY?

YOU MARRY A GUY WHOSE
COLLEGE NICKNAME IS HOUND DOG,

WHAT DID YOU THINK
WAS GOING TO HAPPEN?

OH, EMMA RAE,

DON'T YOU THINK
I FEEL LIKE AN IDIOT?

I'M OUT THERE
ON THE GODDAMN STREET!

WHAT AM I SUPPOSED
TO DO? WHAT?

YOU DID
THE RIGHT THING.

YOU DID.

WELL,
I'M PROUD OF YOU.

I'LL KILL
THE SON OF A BITCH.

JAMIE,
GOOD TO SEE YOU.

IT'S GOOD TO BE HERE.

GRACE, YOU BETTER
GET IT TOGETHER.

DADDY WILL BE HERE
IN ABOUT 10 SECONDS.

[KNOCK ON DOOR]

AH, COME IN.

HEY, DADDY.
HERE'S YOUR SCHEDULE.

WE GOT THE TROUTMAN
AUCTION AT NOON.

I'M MEETING WITH MR. YOPP
ABOUT THE FINANCING AT 4:00.

WHAT IN SAM HILL'S
GOING ON HERE?

WHAT ARE YOU
TALKING ABOUT?

YOU WANT TO
SUCCEED IN BUSINESS,

YOU'LL HAVE TO
LEARN TO LIE

A WHOLE LOT BETTER
THAN THAT.

HEY, DADDY.

[WHISPERS]

ALL RIGHT.

I'M GOING TO GO
SEE ABOUT SOME STUFF.

IN YOUR GODDAMN
NIGHTGOWN--

IS THAT PART TRUE?

DADDY.

IS THIS HOW YOU BEHAVE
IN FRONT OF YOUR CHILD?

WHAT IN THE NAME OF GOD
HAS GOTTEN INTO YOU?

YOU THINK
YOU'RE INVISIBLE?

WE'RE HAVING
SOME PROBLEMS.

HE WASN'T IN HIS GODDAMN
UNDERWEAR, WAS HE?

NO. I-I-I MEAN--

HOW DOES RUNNING AROUND
NAKED SOLVE ANYTHING?

YOU TRYING TO HUMILIATE
YOUR WHOLE DAMN FAMILY?

MY, GOD.

HER HEART MUST BE IN
A MILLION LITTLE PIECES.

NO. HER PRIDE.

AND FOR GOD SAKES,
DON'T GET MAUDLIN.

IT'S JUST SO AWFUL.

I CAN'T BELIEVE
EDDIE WOULD DO THAT.

I KNOW.

WHAT COULD HE HAVE
BEEN THINKING OF?

PROBABLY SAME THING
HE WAS THINKING WITH.

DON'T BE VULGAR,
EMMA RAE.

ARE SPOONS ON
THE RIGHT OR THE LEFT?

All:
ON THE RIGHT.

I'M GOING TO HEAD BACK.

SHE'S PROBABLY HAD
ABOUT ALL SHE CAN TAKE.

YOU GOT HER
ALL SQUARED AWAY?

YEAH. SHE'LL BE
ALL RIGHT.

SHE TELL YOU
WHAT WAS GOING ON?

JUST A FIGHT.

EDDIE'S FUCKING
SOMEBODY ELSE.

THAT FOR SURE?

YEP.

OK. SEE YOU AT NOON.

OK.

HI, HONEY.

I JUST THOUGHT
WE COULD GET CAUGHT UP

ON THESE BOOKS BEFORE IT GETS
ANY CRAZIER AROUND HERE.

MOTHER, PLEASE.
NOW'S NOT A GOOD TIME.

JUST GIVE ME
THE RECEIPTS,

AND I'LL ENTER
EVERYTHING.

MOM.

HONEY, HE SLIPPED.

MOTHER, PLEASE,

I DON'T WANT TO TALK
ABOUT THIS WITH YOU.

THIS HAPPENS
IN THE BEST OF MARRIAGES,

AND IT DOES NOT MEAN
THAT HE DOESN'T LOVE YOU.

HONEY,
YOU HAVE A DAUGHTER

WHO'S CRAZY
ABOUT HER FATHER,

AND HE'S CRAZY ABOUT HER,
GOD KNOWS.

NOW, HE SLIPPED,
AND CRAZY AS IT SEEMS,

IT'S UP TO YOU
TO HELP HIM UP.

I DON'T BELIEVE
I'M HEARING THIS.

AND, HONEY,
YOU'VE GONE ABOUT THIS

IN A WAY THAT'S GOING TO
HAVE EVERYBODY TALKING.

THAT'S ALL RIGHT.
YOU JUST LET THEM TALK.

BUT AFTER THIS...

FROM NOW ON, LET'S MAKE IT
A PRIVATE FAMILY AFFAIR.

AND IF YOU WANT TO
TALK ABOUT ANYTHING,

YOU JUST COME AND TALK
TO YOUR MAMMA, OK?

WE CAN DO THESE BOOKS
ANOTHER TIME.

I LOVE YOU,
HONEY.

EDDIE'S COMING.

WHAT?

DADDY MUST HAVE CALLED HIM.
WHAT SHOULD I DO?

KEEP HIM BUSY.

OK.

[KNOCK ON DOOR]

HI.

HI.

IS SHE HERE?

YEAH.

OOH!

I'LL GET HER.

[GROANING]

GRACE,
THE LYING, CHEATING

SACK OF SHIT
IS HERE.

CAN'T BREA...

OH, MY GOD.

EMMA RAE,
WHAT DID YOU DO?

YOU SAID KEEP HIM BUSY.

HE'S BUSY
HOLDING HIS NUTS.

OH, MY GOD. EDDIE,
ARE YOU ALL RIGHT?

NO...

HELP ME GET HIM UP.

NO. STAY THE HELL
OVER THERE.

I WOULDN'T WALK THAT FAR
TO HELP YOU UP.

GOD, EMMA RAE. WHAT'S
THE MATTER WITH YOU?

CONSIDER IT A BLOW
FOR YOUR DIGNITY.

WHAT'S DIGNIFIED
ABOUT KICKING SOMEBODY
IN THE BALLS?

WELL, I FEEL BETTER.

[DOOR CLOSES]

GRACE, LOOK.
I KNOW--

NO, YOU DON'T KNOW.

YOU DON'T KNOW
WHAT IT'S LIKE

TO BE LIED TO,

AND YOU DON'T KNOW
WHAT IT'S LIKE

TO SIT WITH YOUR CHILD

WHILE YOUR HUSBAND'S
MAKING OUT ON THE STREET

AND TO BE MADE
A BIG, FAT FOOL OF,

SO PLEASE DON'T START
WITH "I KNOW,"

BECAUSE YOU DON'T KNOW!

WHAT I WAS GOING TO SAY

IS THAT I KNOW I'M 100%
IN THE WRONG HERE,

AND I DON'T BLAME YOU
FOR BEING MAD.

WHAT A COMFORT.

I DON'T WANT THIS.

I DON'T WANT TO BE THIS PERSON,
THIS WIFE, UNDERSTAND?

I FEEL LIKE AN IDIOT.
WHAT IF CAROLINE HAD SEEN YOU?

DO YOU KNOW
HOW CLOSE SHE CAME?

I'M SORRY.

I REALLY DON'T CARE
IF YOU'RE SORRY.

I CAN'T JUST
LET IT GO, EDDIE.

I WANT YOU TO LEAVE.

DON'T I GET TO
SAY ANYTHING?

I'D REALLY
RATHER YOU DIDN'T.

WELL, WHERE
IS THE DOODLEBUG?

SHE'S NOT HERE.
SHE'S WITH MOTHER.

YOU CANNOT STOP ME
FROM SEEING HER, GRACE.

I DIDN'T KNOW
YOU WERE COMING OVER.

SHE'S AT AUNT RAE'S.
GO OVER THERE.

I DARE YOU.

WILL YOU TELL HER
THAT I LOVE HER?

WHATEVER THAT MEANS.

OH, JEEZ.

[SIGHS]

EM.

EMMA RAE!

ARE YOU ADDRESSING ME?

YES.

WELL, LICK IT,
PUT A STAMP ON IT,

AND MAIL IT TO SOMEONE
WHO GIVES A SHIT.

OK. JUST TROT-HITCH.
WARM UP.

HEY, SWEETIE PLUM.

HEY.

HEY, POSSUM!

KEEP YOUR MIND
ON MISS LILY.

SHE DRIVING YOU CRAZY
OVER POSSUM?

NOPE.

KEEP HER IN A TROT.

LOOKING GOOD, SWEETIE.

BORING.

SLOW HER JUST A TAD.

HEY, BUDDY.

HANK, LOOK, I'VE BEEN WAITING
FOR THE RIGHT OPPORTUNITY

TO TALK TO DADDY
ABOUT THIS,

BUT YOU'VE JUST GOT TO KNOW
THAT IF IT WAS UP TO ME--

BUT IT'S NOT, IS IT?

I'M NOT GOING TO LEAVE
BEFORE THE EVENT,

SO DON'T WORRY ABOUT IT,

BUT WHEN IT'S OVER,
I'M GONE, OK?

Jamie: ALL RIGHT!

THAT'S A GOOD
DECISION.

THAT'S IT.

THERE'S ONE.

YEAH. THAT'S GOOD.
NOW, SEE YOUR DISTANCE.

JUST RIDE HIM
INTO THE BASE.

WHAT DO YOU THINK
I'M DOING?

HERE WE GO.

MISSED IT.

IT WAS RIGHT THERE.

JUST COME BACK
AND MAKE HIM JUMP THE JUMP.

SON, PIPE DOWN AND LET ME
GET THE FEEL OF HIM.

I'VE BEEN DOING THIS SINCE
YOU WERE IN SHORT PANTS.

HE KNOWS
WHAT HE'S DOING...

more than you do,
you son of a bitch.

HEY, GRACE!

OOPS.

I FEEL FOR YOU,
BUDDY.

AMEN.

AMEN.

WHERE'S MY BABY?
WHERE'S CAROLINE?

AT SCHOOL.

SHE MUST BE MISSING HER DADDY
PRETTY GOOD BY NOW.

YES, I'M SURE SHE IS.

YOU'RE AWARE
THAT WE'RE INVOLVED

IN A REAL-ESTATE DEAL
WITH EDDIE AND HIS DAD.

EMMA RAE MENTION ANYTHING
ABOUT THAT TO YOU AT ALL?

YES, DADDY.
I'M AWARE OF IT--

THE WHEELER FARM
PROJECT.

I'M VERY AWARE
OF IT.

SO YOU KNOW HOW UNCOMFORTABLE
IT MAKES ALL OF US

FOR YOU AND EDDIE
TO HAVE THESE PROBLEMS

IN THE MIDDLE
OF WHAT COULD BE

A VERY LUCRATIVE SITUATION
FOR EVERYONE?

YES.

NOW, I TALKED TO EDDIE
AGAIN LAST NIGHT.

HE WANTS TO MAKE AMENDS.

HE'S WILLING TO DO
WHATEVER IT TAKES

TO WORK THIS THING OUT.

THE MARRIAGE
OR THE DEAL?

DON'T YOU GET SMART
WITH ME.

IT'S A LEGITIMATE
QUESTION.

I'M TALKING
TO YOUR SISTER.

I KNOW.

I'M JUST FOLLOWING ALONG
FOR THE HELL OF IT.

NOW, LISTEN, HONEY.

I'M NOT SAYING HE HASN'T
DONE ANYTHING WRONG.

HE KNOWS HE HAS.

BUT HE'S A GOOD FATHER
AND A GOOD PROVIDER.

THAT'S NOT SO EASY
TO COME BY.

THEN YOU MARRY HIM.

NOW, LOOK, CHILD.

PEOPLE HAVE SURVIVED
WORSE TRAGEDIES THAN THIS.

YOU'RE A GROWN WOMAN
WITH RESPONSIBILITIES,

AND YOU ARE TOO OLD
TO COME RUNNING HOME.

YOU CAN'T WORK THINGS OUT,
THAT'S ONE THING,

BUT YOU HAVEN'T TRIED,
AND THAT I WON'T HAVE.

YOU UNDERSTAND
WHAT I'M SAYING?

I THINK SO. AHEM.

YOU'RE TELLING ME

THAT IF I JUST
EAT SHIT POLITELY

WITH A KNIFE AND FORK

AND JUST
LEARN TO SWALLOW

THE HANDFULS OF BULLSHIT
THAT HE SERVES UP TO ME,

THEN EVERYTHING
WILL BE JUST A-OK.

IS THAT IT, DADDY?

THAT'S WHAT
YOU'RE SAYING.

I MEAN, ISN'T IT?

GRACE, HONEY.

NICE GOING, DADDY.

YOU HANDLED THAT
LIKE A REAL PRO.

YOU BETTER WATCH OUT.

I'VE JUST ABOUT HAD IT
WITH YOU.

ALL OUR FRIENDS COMPLAIN

ABOUT HOW THEIR KIDS
GROW UP AND GO OFF

AND THEY NEVER HEAR
FROM THEM ANYMORE.

WHY IN THE HELL CAN'T
THAT HAPPEN TO US?

YOU ALL RIGHT?

YES.

I'M JUST...SO...

WHAT DID I DO?

I WAS GOING TO BE
A GODDAMN LARGE-ANIMAL VET.

I ONLY HAD
A YEAR TO GO.

HOW DID THIS HAPPEN TO ME?

WHAT'S THAT?

THE CHI O
SADIE HAWKINS DANCE.

THAT'S RIGHT.
SADIE HAWKINS.

EXHIBIT "A."

YOU ASKED HIM.

SO? WHAT'S YOUR POINT?

MY POINT IS
THAT NONE OF THIS

JUST HAPPENED
TO YOU, GRACE.

LET'S FACE IT.

YOU WEREN'T JUST
HIT BY A TRUCK.

I HAVE TO GO.

I HAVE A CHARITY LEAGUE
MEETING.

ANOTHER PERFECT
CASE IN POINT.

EMMA RAE, I HAVE
A COOKBOOK TO PUT OUT,

AND I HAVE
A DAUGHTER TO RAISE.

AND THE GODDAMN
WINTER GRAND PRIX.

I DON'T HAVE TIME

FOR THE NERVOUS BREAKDOWN
I DESERVE.

SO PLEASE DON'T ASK ME
TO STOP AND THINK.

YOU'RE RIGHT.

YOU'RE RIGHT,
GRACE.

FORGET IT.

I ONLY ASKED HIM BECAUSE
HE WAS A GOOD DANCER.

SHOOT.

OH, GRACE.
OH, WAIT.

CAN I TALK TO YOU
A MINUTE?

I'VE BEEN TRYING
TO CALL YOU.

WHAT IS IT?

WELL, I HEARD
THAT YOU LEFT EDDIE.

WELL, LORENE,
YOU KNOW--

OH, GRACE.

NOW, YOU WOULD TELL ME,
WOULDN'T YOU,

IF THERE WAS
ANYTHING AT ALL

THAT HAD TO DO
WITH ME?

OF COURSE.

OF COURSE I WOULD.

I'M SO RELIEVED.
I KNEW YOU WOULD.

AHEM.

WELL, YOU KNOW
HOW EDDIE AND TUFFY

HAVE ALWAYS BEEN
SO COMPETITIVE AND EVERYTHING.

WELL, I WAS HAVING A REALLY
HARD TIME WITH TUFFY,

AND HE JUST WOULDN'T
STAY PUT, YOU KNOW?

WELL, ANYWAY...

NOTHING SPARKS
A MAN'S INTEREST

BETTER THAN A LITTLE
COMPETITION.

REALLY?

AND THAT'S ALL
IT WAS, REALLY.

IT WAS JUST...
NOTHING.

REALLY.

IF ANYONE WANTS TO VOLUNTEER
FOR THE CHRISTMAS BAZAAR,

EITHER SIGN UP TONIGHT

OR CALL ME
BY THE END OF THE WEEK.

THANK YOU.
ANYONE ELSE?

YES, LUCY?

OK, IF EVERYBODY
WOULD PLEASE COMMIT

TO SELL AT LEAST
10 RAFFLE TICKETS,

THAT WOULD BE GREAT.

OH, GOD.
HAVE YOU SOLD ANY?

CALL ME OR EDNA.

THANK YOU.

AND GRACE.

YES. I WAS JUST WONDERING
IF ANYBODY ELSE HERE

HAS FUCKED MY HUSBAND.

LORENE TOLD ME HOW KIND
HE WAS TO HELP HER OUT

BY SLEEPING WITH HER
TO MAKE TUFFY STRAIGHTEN UP.

I WAS JUST WONDERING

IF THIS IS
A REGULAR SERVICE

HE PROVIDES
TO ALL MY FRIENDS.

GRACE, HONEY,

I DON'T THINK THIS
IS THE APPROPRIATE--

I KNOW THAT, NORMA.
IT'S ALSO NOT APPROPRIATE

FOR ME TO TELL YOU
YOUR HUSBAND

KEEPS HALF THE HOOKERS
IN TOWN IN HIGH HEELS.

SO IF THERE'S ANYONE WHO,
FOR ANY REASON,

HAS HAD ANY KIND OF SEX
WITH MY GODDAMN HUSBAND,

I HAVE A RIGHT TO KNOW.

GRACE, HONEY,
YOU'RE LOSING IT.

NO. OK.

OK. I'LL START.

WHO DO YOU
THINK YOU ARE?

SIT DOWN, HONEY.
THIS IS GETTING GOOD.

KITTY, DID YOU KNOW
BILL HAD AN AFFAIR

WITH DR. DAVENPORT'S
DENTAL HYGIENIST?

THAT'S NOT TRUE!

AND, ELEANOR...

ELEANOR, YOU SLEPT WITH
GEORGE MacMURRAY IN ANTIGUA,

BECAUSE LUCY TOLD ME.

Lucy: GRACE,
THAT'S ENOUGH.

I WON'T DIGNIFY THIS
WITH MY PRESENCE.

DON'T LEAVE.

SHOULDN'T WE JUST BE
HONEST WITH EACH OTHER?

YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO BE
MY FRIENDS.

IF FRIENDS WON'T
TELL THE TRUTH, WHO WILL?

I MEAN, WHO DO WE THINK
WE'RE KIDDING?

[SHOUTING AND ARGUING]

JUST LEAVE ME ALONE!
I WANT TO BE BY MYSELF!

[CHILD CRYING]

I'M TELLING YOU, IT WAS
THE BEST MEETING IN YEARS.

[TIRES SQUEALING]

Eddie: JUST WHAT THE HELL
ARE YOU DOING, GRACE?

YOU JUST ABOUT BUSTED UP
EVERY MARRIAGE WE KNOW.

I'M SURE YOU CAN
HELP THEM OUT.

YOU'RE A GOOD SAMARITAN.

OH, COME ON, GRACE.
WE CAN'T DO THIS.

NOW, LOOK.

CAN WE JUST GET
SOME HELP OR SOMETHING?

GEORGE AND TRUDY WENT THROUGH
SOMETHING LIKE THIS.

THEY GOT SOME HELP.
THEY WORKED IT OUT.

TRUDY'S ON PROZAC,
EDDIE.

OH.

DON'T WE KNOW
ANY NORMAL PEOPLE

THAT WE CAN TALK TO?

NO ONE SPRINGS TO MIND.

ALL RIGHT, GRACE.

WHAT?

DO YOU WANT A DIVORCE?

IS THAT WHAT YOU WANT?

I'LL DO WHATEVER YOU SAY.

A DIVORCE?

IS THAT WHAT YOU WANT?

IS THAT WHAT YOU WANT?

[SIGH]

NO. DO YOU WANT
TO GO INTO THERAPY?

TELL ME WHAT
YOU WANT TO DO.

THAT'S WHY I'M CALLING.

I DON'T KNOW.

YOU WANT AN ANSWER
THIS MINUTE?

YOU CALL THE SHOTS,
GRACE.

TV: YOU MAY THINK YOU'RE PRETTY
HIGH AND MIGHTY, TRUMBULL,

BUT LET ME TELL YOU THIS--

IF I LIVE LONG ENOUGH,
AND I WILL,

I'M GOING TO PULL YOU DOWN
OFF THAT FANCY HORSE OF YOURS

AND SHOVE YOUR FACE
IN THE MUCK...

SO HELP ME.

[ARGUING]

[KNOCK ON DOOR]

TV: BETTER GO, TRUMBULL.

HEY, JAMIE.

IS GRACE HERE?

YEAH, SHE IS.

CAN I SPEAK TO YOU
FOR A SECOND?

DOODLEBUG, WHAT ARE YOU
DOING HERE?

SLEEP.

WELL, IT'S LATE.
COME ON BACK TO BED.

I JUST WANT
TO SLEEP HERE.

YOU CAN SEE POSSUM
FIRST THING IN THE MORNING.

PLEASE LET ME STAY.
I WANT TO STAY HERE.

YOU'RE GETTING TOO BIG
FOR ME TO BE DRAGGING AROUND.

PLEASE?

SAY GOOD NIGHT
TO POSSUM.

MOM?

YEAH, BABY?

ARE YOU GOING
TO GET A DIVORCE?

OH, HONEY.

MY SWEETIE.

DON'T YOU WORRY
ABOUT ANYTHING, OK?

PLEASE DON'T WORRY.

EVERYTHING'S
GOING TO BE OK.

ALL RIGHT?

I'LL WORK
EVERYTHING OUT.

OK?

IS SHE OK?

YEAH.

GOD, THANK YOU
SO MUCH.

I DIDN'T EVEN KNOW
SHE WAS OUT.

I'M GOING TO HIT
THE HAY. GOOD NIGHT.

GOOD NIGHT.

COME ON. LET'S GO.

SHE COMES DOWN EVERY NIGHT
AND VISITS POSSUM.

GOD, SHE'S WORSE
THAN I WAS.

SHE'S A GREAT KID.

I WOULDN'T TALK ON THAT
SPEAKERPHONE ANYMORE, THOUGH.

OH, JEEZ, I'M UNFIT.

NO, YOU'RE NOT.

JUST GOING THROUGH
ALL THIS SHIT

THAT MAKES YOU
CRAZY.

HOW LONG WERE
YOU TWO TOGETHER?

10 YEARS.

DID YOU FIND
YOU LOST YOUR ABILITY

TO THINK RATIONALLY?

WELL, I'M HERE BECAUSE
OF A CUSTODY BATTLE

OVER A HORSE.

DOES THAT TELL YOU
ANYTHING?

I THINK NEXT TIME,

I'D RATHER
JUST GET SHOT.

WELL, DON'T SUGAR-COAT IT
ON MY ACCOUNT.

WHAT?
DO I SOUND BITTER?

OH, NO.
NOT AT ALL.

HOW DO YOU LIKE LIVING
IN CALIFORNIA?

IT'S GREAT IF YOU LIKE
NATURAL DISASTERS.

MY LIFE'S
A NATURAL DISASTER.

ARE YOU STILL UP?

NOT TECHNICALLY.

GOD, THAT GUY
IS SO NICE.

YEAH, HE IS.

I WANT TO HAVE HIM OVER
FOR DINNER SOMETIME.

DO YOU THINK
THAT'D BE TOO WEIRD?

WHY WOULD IT BE WEIRD?

I DON'T KNOW.
YOU KNOW?

YOU HAVE PEOPLE OVER
FOR DINNER ALL THE TIME.

YOU'RE THE WORLD'S
GREATEST HOSTESS,

FOR CRYING OUT LOUD.

WHAT ARE YOU GETTING
ALL SHY ABOUT?

I-I'M NOT.

WELL, I THINK YOU SHOULD
GIVE HIM A CALL

AND ASK HIM
WHAT HE LIKES TO EAT.

IF HE SAYS "PUSSY,"
TELL HIM TO COME OVER.

GODDAMN, EMMA RAE.
YOU ARE SO VILE.

WELL, DO SOMETHING,
WILL YOU?

DO SOMETHING DRASTIC.

YEAH, LIKE I HAVEN'T
ALREADY.

OH.

WELL, I'M GOING TO BED.

GOOD NIGHT.

EMMA RAE?

MM-HMM?

I KNOW YOU'RE
DISAPPOINTED IN ME.

NO.

NO. FOR YOU, SWEETIE,
NOT IN YOU.

WELL, WILL YOU
TAKE SOME ADVICE

FROM A LITTLE OLD LADY?

YOU'VE GOT TO TAKE
THIS BULL BY THE HORNS,

SO TO SPEAK.

ARE YOU GOING
TO SEE HIM?

WE'RE SUPPOSED
TO TALK TONIGHT.

WHERE?

HOUSTON'S.

OH, NO. NOW, SEE?

HE WANTS TO GO SOMEWHERE

WHERE HE THINKS
YOU WON'T MAKE A SCENE,

ALTHOUGH HE KNOWS
THERE IS NO SUCH PLACE.

NO. YOU MEET HIM AT HOME.

AND IF I WERE YOU...

WHAT?

I'D...

WHAT?

I'D MAKE HIM SOMETHING
SPECIAL FOR HIS SUPPER.

OH, AUNT RAE,

I THINK IT'S A LITTLE
MORE COMPLICATED THAN THAT.

I'LL SAY IT AGAIN--

MAKE HIM
SOMETHING SPECIAL

THAT HE WON'T
FORGET EVER.

HERE. MAKE HIM THAT.

"POACHED SALMON
WITH MINT MUSTARD SAUCE."

"OLIVE OIL--

1/8 TEASPOON..."

OH, MY GOD.
BUT THIS IS--

IT'S NOT LETHAL
IN THAT SMALL DOSE.

IT WILL, HOWEVER,

MAKE HIM AS SICK
AS THE DOG HE IS.

OF COURSE, YOU HAVE TO
TELL HIM YOU'VE DONE IT.

I ALWAYS TOLD LLOYD

IF HE WAS GOING TO
HIT ME WHERE I LIVED,

HE COULD EXPECT THE SAME.

I JUST THINK OF IT AS
HOMEOPATHIC AVERSION THERAPY.

BUT THIS IS--

SOMETIMES A LITTLE
NEAR-DEATH EXPERIENCE

HELPS THEM PUT THINGS
IN PERSPECTIVE.

YES, MA'AM.

SUGAR?

NO, THANKS.

[SNIFF]

WHO IS THAT
GRAMPS IS ON THERE?

OH, THAT'S PRIDE'S
SOLDIER BOY.

THAT'S THE YEAR HE WON
THE UPPERVILLE GRAND PRIX.

WHY DO YOU ALWAYS DO THAT
WHEN GRAMPS RIDES?

DO WHAT, HONEY?

STAND UP AND GIVE
THAT LITTLE WAVE.

OH, THAT'S JUST ONE OF
THOSE THINGS THAT HAPPENS.

FIRST TIME HE JUST
CAME IN THERE,

HE WAS LOOKING
SO HANDSOME

I JUST STOOD RIGHT UP.

THEN IT GOT TO BE
KIND OF A TRADITION.

AAH!
OH, GOD!

HI.

HI.

WHAT ARE YOU MAKING?

SALMON WITH
MINT MUSTARD SAUCE.

SALMON WITH MINT
MUSTARD SAUCE?

AUNT RAE GAVE ME
THE RECIPE.

SHE ASSURES ME
IT'S UNFORGETTABLE.

WELL, EVERYTHING YOU
MAKE IS UNFORGETTABLE.

EDDIE, PLEASE.

DON'T START TRYING TO
CHARM ME RIGHT OFF THE BAT.

THAT'S NOT
WHAT THIS IS ABOUT.

I WAS JUST--
HEY, UH, WANT A DRINK?

I'M GOING TO GET
A DRINK.

I DON'T KNOW
WHAT WE'RE DOING.

WHAT? THIS?

OH. OH, YES, YOU DO.

YOU KNOW
WHAT THIS IS.

THIS IS THE BEGINNING
OF MY PUNISHMENT.

I DIDN'T COME HERE
TO FIGHT, EDDIE, OK?

YOU SAID YOU WANTED
TO TALK, SO TALK.

[GRINDING]

[TURNS OFF FOOD PROCESSOR]

I WASN'T EVEN
GOING TO DO THIS.

I WASN'T EVEN
GOING TO GET MARRIED.

HOW MANY TIMES AM I GOING
TO HAVE TO HEAR THIS?

"I WAS GOING TO BE
A LARGE-ANIMAL VET."

THAT'S RIGHT.

WHY THE HELL
DIDN'T YOU?

BECAUSE, EDDIE,
I GOT PREGNANT, REMEMBER?

GRACE,
NOBODY MADE YOU QUIT.

IF YOU DIDN'T WANT
TO MARRY, WHY DID YOU?

WHY'D YOU ASK ME?

YOU HAVEN'T STOPPED
DATING YET.

HONESTLY, GRACE, I--

I DIDN'T THINK
YOU'D SAY YES.

NOW, WAIT A MINUTE.

THAT DIDN'T
COME OUT RIGHT.

GRACE, THAT IS NOT
WHAT I MEANT.

NO. I WANTED TO KNOW.

DO YOU THINK THIS IS
WHAT I WANTED?

LIKE I HAD IT PLANNED?

PLAN? WHAT PLAN?

THE WAY YOU TELL IT,
YOU JUST GAMBLED AND LOST.

NO. THAT'S THE WAY
YOU TELL IT.

I MEAN, I MISS CAROLINE.

YOU SHOULD HAVE
THOUGHT OF THAT.

DID YOU THINK ABOUT HER?

TELL ME SOMETHING, EDDIE.

WHAT EXACTLY
GOES THROUGH YOUR MIND

AS YOU'RE
SLIPPING IT IN?

WILL YOU STOP IT?

STOP IT.

YOU'RE NOT GOING
TO BELIEVE THIS,

BUT THIS DOESN'T EXACTLY
MAKE ME HAPPY, EITHER.

OH, JESUS CHRIST, EDDIE.
GIVE ME A BREAK.

AT LEAST
THEY DON'T TENSE UP

WHEN I TOUCH THEM...

AND STIFFEN UP.

WHAT ARE YOU
TALKING ABOUT?

YOU KNOW WHAT.
YOU NEVER TOUCH ME.

THAT'S NOT TRUE.

WHEN'S THE LAST TIME
YOU LAID A HAND ON ME?

THAT'S NOT THE POINT.

IT IS, TOO,
THE GODDAMN POINT!

IF YOU KISSED ME
THE WAY YOU KISSED THAT GIRL,

I'D BE MORE INCLINED...

TO WHAT?

TO....

TO WHAT, GRACE?

YOU CAN'T EVEN
SAY IT ANYMORE.

DON'T YOU LAY THAT ON ME.

THERE'S NOTHING
WRONG WITH ME.

I HAVE ORGASMS EVERY DAY.

I'M JUST USED TO HAVING
WHEN YOU'RE NOT IN THE ROOM.

OH, THAT'S JUST GREAT!

THAT'S EXACTLY
THE POINT, GRACE.

W-WHAT--
WHAT'S HAPPENED HERE?

PLEASE.

HOW DID WE GET
THIS FAR GONE, HUH?

WHAT HAPPENED TO US?

THAT'S WHAT
I WANT TO KNOW.

THAT'S WHAT I'VE BEEN
WANTING TO KNOW

FOR A LONG TIME.

IF YOU DON'T LOVE ME,

I WISH YOU'D GO AHEAD
AND SAY SO.

I KNOW
I'M A DISAPPOINTMENT.

I'M A DISAPPOINTMENT
TO MYSELF.

YOU THINK THIS IS
WHAT I WANT TO BE?

I'VE DONE EXACTLY WHAT'S
EXPECTED OF ME ALL MY LIFE.

I WORK FOR MY FATHER,
FOR GOD'S SAKES.

SO DO YOU.

WE BOTH TURNED INTO WHAT
WE SWORE WE'D NEVER BECOME.

I MEAN, WE USED
TO LIKE EACH OTHER.

WE USED TO
MAKE EACH OTHER LAUGH.

IT USED TO BE SO EASY.

YOU KNOW,
WHATEVER HAPPENED

TO SUNDAY
UNDER THE COVERS...

AND DANCING IN THE DEN

AFTER CAROLINE
HAD GONE TO BED,

MAKING LOVE
AFTER TWO HOURS' SLEEP?

AND WHATEVER HAPPENED
TO YOU WANTING ME?

I MEAN, GRACE,
YOU KNOW ME.

I'M NOT
ONE OF THOSE GUYS.

I'M A DECENT PERSON.

YOU KNOW ME.

I'M THE GUY THAT YOU
FELL IN LOVE WITH.

YOU KNOW ME.

YEAH. OH, EDDIE.

[CLEARS THROAT]

OH. OH, EDDIE, I'VE DONE
SOMETHING SO WRONG.

I WAS TRYING--

YOU FORGET ABOUT IT.
IT'S OK.

NO. IT'S NOT OK.

I THINK, UH...

[CLEARS THROAT]

I DON'T FEEL
SO GOOD, HONEY.

WE SHOULD TAKE YOU TO
THE HOSPITAL, I THINK.

THERE'S SOMETHING
IN THE FISH.

THERE'S WHAT?

IN THE FISH, HONEY.

[VOMITING]

OH, MY GOD!

[VOMITING CONTINUES]

WH-WHICH HOSPITAL,
HONEY?

WE'RE ALMOST THERE.
WE'RE ALMOST THERE.

OH, GOD!

[VOMITING]

I'M SO SORRY.

I'M SO SORRY.
I'M SO SORRY.

OH, MY GOD.

LOOK AT YOU.

IS HE GOING
TO BE ALL RIGHT?

OH, HONEY, I JUST DON'T KNOW
WHAT'S GOTTEN INTO YOU.

I MEAN, HOW COULD YOU LISTEN
TO THAT SILLY OLD WOMAN?

COME ON, NOW.

WE'LL GO GET YOU CLEANED UP
A LITTLE BIT.

THIS IS TERRIBLE.

WE'LL GO
TO THAT BATHROOM THERE.

MOTHER--

DON'T YOU "MOTHER" ME,
CHILD.

YOU ARE
AN ABSOLUTE MESS.

YES, YES, I'M A MESS.
LOOK AT ME.

I'M AN OUTRAGE.
A DISGRACE, A FAILURE.

DON'T EVER SAY THAT.
YOU ARE NOT A FAILURE.

YES, I AM.
I HATE MYSELF.

I HATE MY LIFE.
I IGNORE MY HUSBAND.

I DRIVE AWAY
AND FORGET MY CHILD.

I FAILED AT
ALL OF IT, MOTHER--

EDDIE, MYSELF, EVERYTHING.
EVERYTHING!

HONEY,
NOW, NOW, LISTEN.

GRACE, YOU HAVE TO
GET A GRIP ON YOURSELF.

THIS IS NOT JUST
ABOUT YOU.

YOU HAVE YOUR DAUGHTER
TO THINK OF. WHAT DOES--

IS THIS WHAT
YOU WANT HER TO SEE?

IS IT?

HONEY, HONEY, HEY.

I KNOW YOU DON'T THINK
I UNDERSTAND,

BUT I HAVE HAD
MY TROUBLES, TOO.

A LONG TIME AGO AND I NEVER
WANTED TO SAY ANYTHING,

BUT I DID WANT
TO MAKE SURE

THAT IF YOU AND YOUR SISTER
EVER FOUND OUT,

YOU'D BE PROUD OF THE WAY
I HANDLED MYSELF.

PROUD? ARE YOU
OUT OF YOUR MIND?

HOW THE HELL ARE WE
SUPPOSED TO BE PROUD

THAT YOU WERE OBLIVIOUS

TO WHAT WAS GOING ON
IN FRONT OF YOUR FACE?

THERE WAS NOTHING GOING ON
IN FRONT OF MY FACE.

MOM, PLEASE.
YOU WERE RIGHT THERE.

MRS. PRITCHETT--
ANNIE PRITCHETT--

ARE YOU GOING TO STAND THERE
AND TELL ME YOU DIDN'T KNOW?

AT LEAST CAROLINE WILL SEE

THAT I DIDN'T JUST
SIT BACK AND IGNORE IT.

MOM, WAIT.

GET A LAWYER.

[RAPS KNOCKER]

MOTHER, SOMETHING'S WRONG
WITH THIS GODDAMN DOOR!

THERE'S NOTHING
WRONG WITH THE DOOR.

AND DON'T CALL ME
"MOTHER"!

WELL, THEN OPEN
THE GODDAMN THING.

OH, YOU GO TO HELL!

GEORGIA, WHAT'S GOING ON?
OPEN THE DOOR.

WHY DON'T YOU GO RAP ON
ANNIE PRITCHETT'S DOOR?

WHAT IN THE HELL
ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?

HAVE YOU GOTTEN
INTO THE APPLE WINE?

I AM TALKING ABOUT YOUR
EXTRACURRICULAR ACTIVITIES!

I AM TALKING ABOUT

YOUR LYING, CHEATING
EXTRACURRICULAR ACTIVITIES!

NOW, WAIT A MINUTE.
I DO NOT CHEAT!

I MAY HAVE FOOLED AROUND,
BUT I NEVER CHEATED!

WYLY, HOW COULD
YOU DO IT?

I MEAN, SHE WAS
A FRIEND OF MINE.

AND DON'T THINK

THAT THERE WEREN'T TIMES
WHEN I HAD THOUGHTS, TOO,

BECAUSE THERE WERE.

BUT NEVER ONCE, NOT ONCE,

OUT OF MY RESPECT FOR YOU
AND OUR MARRIAGE--

WHAT THOUGHTS?

FRANK LEWIS.

WHO?

DR. LEWIS.

DO YOU KNOW THAT
AFTER ALL OF THESE YEARS

HE STILL HAS
FEELINGS FOR ME?

WYLY, HE SAID THAT
I HAVE BEAUTIFUL HIPS.

WELL, HONEY, I WOULDN'T
HANG ANY HOPES

ON SOMETHING SOMEBODY
SAID 40 YEARS AGO.

LAST WEEK HE SAID IT!

WHEN I TOOK AUNT RAE IN,
I HAD MY YEARLY PHYSICAL.

HE SAID IT LAST WEEK!

NOW, THAT'S
ENOUGH OF THAT!

GODDAMN IT!
OPEN THE GODDAMN DOOR!

I WON'T TOLERATE
THIS KIND OF DISRESPECT!

DON'T YOU TALK TO ME
ABOUT DISRESPECT,

YOU SELF-CENTERED
OLD GOAT!

SELF-CENTERED!
HAVEN'T I GIVEN YOU

EVERY GODDAMN THING
YOU EVER WANTED?

YOU THINK YOU'D HAVE HAD
THIS LIFE WITH FRANK LEWIS?

THE LIFE I WOULD HAVE
WITH FRANK LEWIS

WOULD HAVE INCLUDED
RESPECT.

MY OWN DAUGHTERS
ARE ASHAMED OF ME.

I'LL TELL YOU SOMETHING--

I AM ASHAMED OF YOU.

WHY?

YOU ARE A HUMILIATION!

OUR LITTLE GIRL'S LIFE
IS FALLING APART,

AND YOU TELL HER
IT'S BAD FOR BUSINESS!

YOU ARE A DISGRACE!

YOU DRINK TOO MUCH,

AND YOU LAUGH TOO LOUD
AT YOUR OWN JOKES,

AND I'M GOING TO
TELL YOU SOMETHING--

WYLY, YOU FART
IN YOUR SLEEP!

YOU DO.

I HAVE PUT UP
WITH ALL OF THAT

BECAUSE IT WAS PART OF YOU
AND I LOVED YOU

AND I WAS PROUD
TO BE YOUR WIFE,

BUT I'M NOT PROUD
ANYMORE!

AND IF YOU ATTEMPT TO WALK
ACROSS THIS THRESHOLD,

I AM GOING TO CALL
DOWN TO THE BARN,

AND I'M GOING
TO HAVE THOSE BOYS

THROW YOU
OUT ON YOUR ASS!

WHEW.

[KNOCK KNOCK]

YOU MISSED
A GOOD TIME,

THOUGH I HEAR YOU HAD
QUITE A PARTY YOURSELF.

MAMMA, I'M SO SORRY.

AFTER 38 YEARS,

A LITTLE BREAK WOULD
DO US ALL SOME GOOD.

IS HE STILL ROAMING
AROUND THE YARD?

Grace: YEAH.

WHY CAN'T HE JUST
GO TO A MOTEL?

IT'S A TERRITORIAL
THING, MAMMA.

HE'S PROBABLY OUT THERE
PISSING ON TREES.

HA HA HA!

IT'S NOT FAIR,
POSSUM.

BUT NEXT YEAR,
I PROMISE.

OH, I WISH I COULD
HELP YOU, GRACE.

ME, TOO.

I CAN GET YOU DRUNK.

OK.

IRRECONCILABLE
DIFFERENCES.

SOUNDS BETTER THAN
NOBODY CARES ANYMORE

AND WE WANT IT
OVER WITH.

THAT SUMS IT UP.

WHAT WOULD SHE SAY?

SHE WOULD SAY THAT
I WAS CHEATING ON HER.

WERE YOU?

ARE YOU SEEING
ANYBODY NOW?

NO. ABSOLUTELY NO.

IT'S NOT AS MUCH FUN

WHEN YOUR MARRIAGE IS
BANGING ON THE ROCKS.

SPEAKING OF WHICH...

IT NEVER WAS MUCH FUN.

DOES SHE DRINK?

NO.

DOESN'T DRINK
ALCOHOL AT ALL?

WELL, A GLASS OF WINE
SOMETIMES.

THEN SHE DRINKS.

HEY, JACK,
DON'T WRITE THAT DOWN.

GRACE IS NOT A DRINKER.

WAS SHE DRINKING
WHEN SHE MADE

THE ATTEMPT
ON YOUR LIFE?

THAT WAS AN ATTEMPT--
AHEM--ON MY OTHER LIFE.

WHAT ABOUT
YOUR DAUGHTER?

HOW'S SHE FEEL ABOUT SEEING
YOU EVERY OTHER WEEKEND?

GRACE WOULDN'T DO THAT
TO CAROLINE.

YOU JUST WAIT
AND SEE.

SHE'LL USE
THAT KID--

YOU DON'T KNOW HER.

WAKE UP, EDDIE.

DIVORCES DON'T
HAPPEN IN CHURCH.

NO GUTS, NO GLORY.

YOU SEE WHAT
I'M SAYING?

YEAH.

I SEE WHAT
YOU'RE SAYING, JACK.

UH...

I'M...

THIS IS A BIG MISTAKE.
I'M SORRY.

I WASTED YOUR TIME.

I'M SORRY.

[COUNTRY MUSIC PLAYING]

JUST ACT LIKE I SAID
SOMETHING SO FUNNY,

YOU'RE ABOUT TO DIE.

I'LL JUST SIT HERE

LIKE I'M WAITING TO ZING
ANOTHER ONE IN THERE.

WHAT'S SO FUNNY?

I JUST HAVE THAT
EFFECT ON PEOPLE.

LISTEN, GRACE, CAN
YOU GET A RIDE HOME?

I GOT IT.

THANKS.

SEE YOU TOMORROW.

HAVE FUN.

OH, BOY. I DON'T
KNOW ABOUT YOU,

BUT I'VE HAD AS MUCH FUN
AS I CAN STAND.

WHAT DO YOU SAY
WE HEAD ON OUT?

OK?

Radio:
* HEARTACHE ON HEARTACHE *

* WILL NEVER ERASE *

* AWAITING REDEMPTION *

* PRAYING FOR FATE *

WAS THIS WHERE
YOU WANTED TO GO?

NO.

WELL...WHERE DID
YOU WANT TO GO?

I DON'T KNOW.

I DON'T REALLY FEEL
LIKE GOING HOME YET.

WELL...

I'D INVITE YOU TO MY PLACE
FOR A NIGHTCAP--

OK.

OK.

OK.

WOW.

IT'S BEEN A LONG TIME
SINCE I'VE BEEN IN HERE.

I WASN'T EXPECTING
COMPANY.

EVERYTHING
LOOKS SMALL.

YEAH, WELL, IT'S KIND OF
CLOSE QUARTERS IN HERE.

YOU WANT A DRINK?

YEAH.

OH, GOD, I USED TO PLAY
IN HERE WHEN I WAS LITTLE.

SOME GLASSES HERE...
SOMEWHERE.

AND THEN LATER...

I LOST SOMETHING
IN HERE.

GOD, I WAS 16, 15--
NO, 16...

'CAUSE THAT WAS THE YEAR

I RODE MIRACLE CHILD
IN THE NATIONAL.

AND HE WAS HERE
WITH HIS PARENTS.

EVERYBODY WAS AWAY
AT THE AUCTION.

WOULD YOU LIKE
ANOTHER DRINK?

YEAH.

THANK YOU.

GOD, I REMEMBER
I WAS SO NERVOUS, AND...

I WAS STANDING RIGHT
IN THIS VERY SPOT...

WITH MY BACK TO HIM,
LOOKING OUT THE WINDOW.

I KNEW I WANTED
SOMETHING TO HAPPEN,

BUT I DIDN'T KNOW
WHAT TO DO OR SAY,

SO I JUST STOOD HERE...

HOPING AND WAITING...
FOR HIM TO MAKE HIS MOVE.

AND?

AND FINALLY HE DID.

OH, SORRY,
SORRY, SORRY.

WHAT'S WRONG?

NOTHING.

GODDAMN YOU, EDDIE!
DAMN YOU!

I HAVE ABSOLUTELY NOTHING
TO FEEL GUILTY ABOUT.

I AM NOT THE ONE
WHO WAS UNFAITHFUL.

AM I RIGHT?

RIGHT.

YES. [SIGHS]

I--I--I--I WANT
TO DO THIS.

I REALLY WANT TO.

BUT YOU KNOW,
IT JUST FIGURES

THAT THE ONE TIME
I WANT TO DO THIS,

YOU'D FIND A WAY TO
TAKE THE FUN OUT OF IT.

I'M NOT DOING THIS
FOR REVENGE.

LET'S JUST GET
THAT STRAIGHT.

OK.

THAT'S NOT WHAT'S
GOING ON HERE.

WELL--

WHAT...IS GOING ON HERE?

I HAVE ABSOLUTELY
NO IDEA.

COME HERE.

THIS IS CRAZY.

THIS IS SO CRAZY.
I'VE BEEN WANTING THIS.

I CAN'T BELIEVE
I'M ABOUT TO SAY THIS...

BUT YOU'RE NOT READY.

YES, I AM.

OH, NO, YOU'RE NOT.

YOU GOT
TO FACE THE FACTS.

YOU GOT A BROKEN HEART.

YOU GOT TO
DEAL WITH IT,

AND I DON'T WANT
TO BE THIS...

CRAZY THING
YOU DID ONE NIGHT.

OH, SHIT.

WELL, IF WE'RE
NOT DOING THIS,

WHAT DO
YOU WANT TO DO?

OH, GOD.

MMM...

MMM...

I'LL SAY ONE THING--

YOU SOUTHERN WOMEN
SURE ARE EASY TO PLEASE.

COMES FROM CENTURIES
OF BEING BRED

TO KEEP OUR
EXPECTATIONS LOW.

HA HA HA!

WAIT A SECOND.

CAROLINE, WAKE UP. I HAVE
TO TELL YOU SOMETHING.

BABY, YOU'RE GOING
TO RIDE POSSUM, OK?

CAROLINE,
DID YOU HEAR ME?

NO, NO, NO.
NOT RIGHT NOW.

TOMORROW, SWEETIE.

DO YOU KNOW I LOVE YOU,
DOODLEBUG?

YEAH. GOOD NIGHT,
MY SWEETIE.

GOOD NIGHT.

Caroline:
YES! HA HA HA!

Emma Rae:
HE HAS A TENDENCY

TO BACK OFF
OF THE FIRST FENCE.

Grace:
TROT HIM TO THE END,

AND LET HIM SEE
THE COURSE.

HEY! BUG!

DADDY! HA HA HA!

YOU LOOK LIKE
A WINNER.

I DO?

GRACE.

HI, EDDIE.

Hank: READY TO GO,
CAROLINE?

COME ON, DADDY.

RIGHT BEHIND YOU,
HONEY.

Emma Rae: YOU'LL FEEL
HIM GOING INTO IT.

SUPPORT HIM AT
THE VERTICAL.

LADYBUG,
I'M GOING TO GO WATCH.

OK.

HAVE FUN.

ALL RIGHT.

NOW, BABY, YOU JUST
STAY REALLY FOCUSED.

MOM! MOM!

MOM, JUST GO IN
AND WATCH.

I WANT TO DO THIS
BY MYSELF. PLEASE?

OK. I LOVE YOU.

I LOVE YOU.

[APPLAUSE]

[BUZZER SOUNDS]

[CROWD GROANS]

A GREAT EFFORT BUT
A DISAPPOINTING FOUR FAULTS

WITHIN THE TIME ALLOWED
FOR NUMBER 184,

OUR DEFENDING CHAMPION
AMANDA FORTE.

IT'S ABOUT
THAT TIME.

OUR LAST EXHIBITOR IN
OUR $2,500 YOUTH JUMPER CLASSIC

IS NUMBER 170,

CAROLINE BICHON
RIDING SILVER BELLS,

AFFECTIONATELY KNOWN
TO MOST OF YOU AS POSSUM.

POSSUM IS A 16.2-HAND
THOROUGHBRED GELDING WHO,

AT THIS VERY SHOW IN 1981
WITH EMMA RAE KING RIDING,

WAS OUR AMATEUR-OWNER
JUMPER CLASSIC CHAMPION.

LADIES AND GENTLEMEN,
HERE'S SILVER BELLS!

[BUZZER]

DON'T FORGET
TO BREATHE.

COME ON.

THAT'S IT.
DON'T OVERRIDE HIM.

YES!

THAT WAS A CLEAN RIDE
FOR CAROLINE BICHON,

NUMBER 170.
GOOD GOING, YOUNG LADY!

THERE YOU GO, HONEY.

THERE'S
YOUR ACCOMPLISHMENT.

IT'S HER ACCOMPLISHMENT,
MAMMA, NOT MINE.

CARRYING ON THAT
FAMILY TRADITION,

FIRST PLACE GOES TO
NUMBER 170--

THAT'S 170--

CAROLINE BICHON
RIDING SILVER BELLS.

THAT'S
MY GRANDDAUGHTER.

LET'S HAVE
A ROUND OF APPLAUSE

AS OUR RIDERS TAKE
THEIR VICTORY GALLOP.

MAMMA GAVE ME THIS
WHEN I FIRST WON

IN MY
14-AND-UNDER CLASS.

THANKS FOR LETTING ME
RIDE HIM, MOM.

SURE, SWEETIE.

DADDY!

AH!

YOU WERE GREAT.

Wyly: CAROLINE,
COME OVER HERE!

THIS IS
MY GRANDDAUGHTER!

HEY.
PRETTY GREAT, HUH?

SHE WAS INCREDIBLE.

YOU SEE HOW
SHE JUST KNEW?

YEAH, I DID.

YOU KNOW,
IT'S JUST HARD...

NOT SEEING HER.

SHE MISSES YOU, TOO.
YEAH.

WHY DOESN'T SHE GO HOME
WITH YOU TONIGHT?

REALLY?

YEAH.

SHE'LL WANT TO COME
SEE DADDY RIDE TOMORROW.

I'D HAVE HER BACK
HERE IN THE MORNING.

WHY DON'T YOU JUST
BRING HER TO THE SHOW?

OK.

THANKS.

OK.

BYE.

BYE.

EMMA RAE! EMMA RAE!
WHERE'S YOUR MOTHER?

WHERE'S GRACE?

SHE'S BUSY.

ALL RIGHT,
HERE WE GO.

1, 2, 3. THANK YOU.

GEORGIA--THAT'S YOUR
GRANDMOTHER'S NAME.

HANK, COME HERE!

OOH! WHAT'S WRONG

YOU'RE THE ONLY ONE
LOVES ME THESE DAYS.

Caroline:
I LOVE YOU.

MY PEANUT LOVES ME.

YOU LOVE ME?

HANK!

HANK.

I WANT TO TALK TO YOU.

JUST A LITTLE DROP,

MORE...MORE...

JUST A SKOSH MORE.

KEEP GOING.

THERE.

I THINK I COULD USE
ONE OF THOSE.

HERE YOU GO, MA.

THANK YOU
FOR COMING OUT

IN THE MIDDLE
OF THE NIGHT.

Doctor:
OH, NO, I'M JUST FINE.

YEAH.

HEY, DOC,
SHE OK?

OH, YEAH.

YOU KNOW, YOU GET
TO BE THAT AGE...

YOU GET
A LITTLE EXCITEMENT,

YOU DRINK A LITTLE
TOO MUCH PUNCH...

SHE'S FINE. YEAH, SHE'LL
PROBABLY OUTLAST US ALL.

THAT'S GOOD.
THAT'S WONDERFUL.

NOW, YOU CALL ME
IF YOU NEED TO.

AND GOOD LUCK
TOMORROW NIGHT.

DOC, LET ME
ASK YOU SOMETHING.

SURE.

DID YOU SAY SHE
HAD BEAUTIFUL HIPS?

WELL, UH...

YES, I DID.

I MEANT FOR...
WELL, SHE HAS.

YOU CHEAP--

OH, JESUS.

WHAT IS IT?

Grace:
STOP IT! DADDY!

JESUS CHRIST!

OH, STOP IT!
DADDY!

NO, IT'S ALL RIGHT.
I BOXED IN THE NAVY.

I WRESTLED IN
HIGH SCHOOL--INTRAMURAL.

BYE-BYE, GIRLS.

BYE.
DRIVE CAREFULLY.

I WILL.

[STARTS CAR]

THAT NO-GOOD
SON OF A BITCH.

COME ON, DADDY.

THERE'S MORE ASS
TO KICK TOMORROW.

YOU CAN RACK OUT
AT MY HOUSE TONIGHT.

WHOA!

OH, BABY.

YOU'VE BEEN SLEEPING
IN THAT BARN TOO LONG.

YEAH. CAN'T EVEN SLEEP
IN MY OWN GODDAMN BED.

DADDY?

HMM?

I TALKED
TO HANK TONIGHT.

GOOD GIRL. YOU GOT HIM
ALL SQUARED AWAY?

YEAH.

GOOD. HE'S NOT
GOING TO QUIT?

NO. HE'S GONNA
RIDE RANSOM.

WHAT?

HOW CAN YOU SAY A...
A FOOL THING LIKE THAT?

BECAUSE IT'S THE RIGHT
THING TO DO, DADDY.

[SIGH]

THE RIGHT THING IS

I'LL DO EXACTLY WITH
MY OWN GODDAMN HORSES

AS I GODDAMN PLEASE.

HANK'S GONNA RIDE.

WHY DO YOU THINK
I BEEN DOING THIS

FOR ALL THESE YEARS--

MY HEALTH?

DON'T YOU HAVE A LOYAL BONE
IN YOUR BODY?

LOOK, DADDY...

I'D LOVE NOTHING MORE
THAN TO SEE YOU WIN,

BUT YOU MUST DO IT
FAIR AND SQUARE.

WAIT A MINUTE.

THE STABLE MANAGER'S TELLING
THE OWNER WHAT TO DO?

NO.

I QUIT.

I'M GOING BACK
TO FINISH VET SCHOOL.

OH, SHE QUIT.
WELL, I'LL BE DAMNED.

I'M TELLING YOU THIS
AS ME.

UH-HUH.

I UNDERSTAND.

COME ON, GRACE.

NOW, DOESN'T
THAT FEEL GOOD?

HOW DID YOU HEAR THAT?

WELL, EDNA TOLD NADINE
WHO TOLD KITTY

WHO TOLD ME THAT SHE SAW
EDDIE WITH JACK PIERCE,

THE MEANEST SON OF A BITCH
DIVORCE GUY IN TOWN.

YOU SHOULD TRY TO
HIRE HIM IF EDDIE HASN'T.

WHEN BETSY
AND BO BARKLEY SPLIT,

HE SCREWED HER
TO THE WALL.

I MEAN,
SHE GOT SQUAT.

EDDIE? CAN I HAVE
A WORD WITH YOU?

FRANK, HOW ARE YOU?

HI.

WHOA!

MARY JANE REED
JUST INFORMED ME

THAT YOU WERE SEEN WITH
JACK "MAD DOG" PIERCE.

COULDN'T YOU BE JUST
A LITTLE MORE DISCREET?

I HATE THE IDEA OF IT BEING
ALL OVER THE BARBECUE.

IT'S PROBABLY
IN THE NEWSPAPER.

YOU'RE RIGHT.

YOU'RE RIGHT.

COME ON.

LET'S TAKE CARE
OF THIS RIGHT NOW.

LET'S GET
THIS SORTED OUT.

LET GO!

EDDIE,
THIS IS NOT...

I CAN'T BELIEVE
YOU'RE DOING THIS.

* LEAVING JUST
YOUR PICTURE BEHIND *

* AND I'VE KISSED IT
A THOUSAND TIMES *

* WANT TO TELL YOU
I DON'T LOVE YOU *

* TELL YOU THAT
WE'RE THROUGH *

* AND I'VE TRIED *

* BUT EVERY TIME
I SEE YOUR FACE *

* I GET ALL CHOKED UP INSIDE *

BACK IT UP.

WALK IT.

* CAN'T HELP MYSELF *

COME ON, SWEETIE.

* EVERY DREAM I EVER
DREAMED *

* THOUGHT THEY HAD SEEN
THE LAST OF ME... *

COME ON, BABY,
LET'S DANCE.

READY?

BET YOU DIDN'T THINK
YOU STILL HAD IT IN YOU.

HEY, DADDY.

HEY, DARLING.

* AND EVERYONE I EVER LOVED *

* WAS DOWN ON ME *

* IT WASN'T MUCH TO SEE
THAT DAY... *

YOU LOOKED GOOD
OUT THERE TONIGHT.

[CHUCKLE]

I LOOKED ALL RIGHT.

I WAS PROUD OF YOU.

WELL, I WAS PROUD
OF YOU, TOO.

DADDY, I'M SORRY.

DON'T BE.

I'M NOT.

YOU KNOW, SON,

YOU WERE LUCKY TO GET
HER THE FIRST TIME.

[SIGH]

IT WAS A DAMN MIRACLE.

OW!

[TAP TAP TAP]

COME ON, ED.

IF I THOUGHT YOU WERE
A TOTAL PIECE OF SHIT,

I WOULDN'T BOTHER GIVING
YOU SUCH A HARD TIME.

THAT'S NOT AS EASY
AS IT USED TO BE.

AAH!

AAH!

GOD, GRACE!

SHH! SHH!

WELL, I'M GONNA GO SEE
A HORSE ABOUT A MAN.

GRACE...

I NEED TO TALK
TO YOU.

I HAD FUN TONIGHT.

ME, TOO.

GRACE...

IF I COULD GO BACK...

IF WE COULD JUST
GET BACK

TO WHERE
WE WERE BEFORE...

I WOULD GO.

WOULD YOU?

HOW WOULD WE MAKE SURE

THAT WE DIDN'T END UP
RIGHT BACK HERE?

IT WOULD
BE DIFFERENT.

I'D TALK TO YOU
BEFORE THINGS GOT...

I WOULDN'T DO THINGS

THAT YOU CAN'T
TAKE BACK.

IT'S NOT JUST
ABOUT THAT.

IT'S MY FAULT, TOO.

NO.

AND I AM SORRY.

I WANT TO BE
DIFFERENT, TOO.

I JUST DON'T WANT TO...

COME TO THE END
OF MY LIFE

AND HAVE TO SAY,
"I WANTED TO BE DIFFERENT,

BUT I CHICKENED OUT
WHEN I HAD THE CHANCE."

AND I FEEL LIKE
THIS IS IT.

THIS IS MY CHANCE

TO BECOME SOMEONE
THAT I CAN BE PROUD OF,

AND I DON'T WANT
TO BLOW IT.

OH, GRACE...

[SIGH]

I THINK THAT...

YOU AND CAROLINE
SHOULD MOVE BACK HOME.

I'LL GET A PLACE
OF MY OWN, OK?

I THINK IT WOULD
BE BETTER FOR HER...

FOR ALL OF US.

I LOVE YOU, GRACE.

I LOVE YOU, TOO.

EDDIE?

YOU CAN USE THE DOOR.

OH, YEAH.

I'LL SEE YOU.

TAKE CARE.

JAMIE!

BET YOU'RE GLAD TO BE
ROLLIN' OUT OF HERE.

OH, IT'S BEEN
INTERESTING.

SO, I'LL SEE YOU
NEXT YEAR.

I'LL BE HERE.

GRACE?

HEY, GRACE.

I'M MEETING MELISSA
LATER FOR RIBS.

DO YOU WANT TO COME
AND BRING CAROLINE?

SORRY. I CAN'T.
I HAVE A DATE.

A DATE?
OR A "DATE" DATE?

A FIRST DATE.

COOL. SEE YOU LATER.

SEE YOU TOMORROW.

HI.

HI.

HOW WAS SCHOOL?

IT WAS GREAT.

YOU'RE EARLY.

WELL, YOU FINALLY
SAID YES TO DINNER.

I FIGURED IT HAD
BETTER BE GOOD, SO...

POACHED PEARS?

YEAH, WITH
A CHANTILLY CREAM.

GO AHEAD.

AHEM. YOU FIRST.
